The bubble I purchased was fairly thin so a sharp pair of scissors worked just fine, any rough edges the Visor pretty much hides. I think I cut about an inch off so it would fit. About a year ago or so I replace that bubble visor with an actual US Navy Green & Clear Visor for that real world look. I'll some pics tomorrow.

This seller has Max's & Hikaru's Masei made helmets for sale if you're interested. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Masei-911-Xcross-Jet-US-F14-Tomcat-Motorcycle-Bike-Harley-Helmet-Size-S-M-29/233587024467?hash=item3662df2253:g:ti4AAOSw5XxeXW-2 Is this eBay seller the one who makes them? Man, if I could find a Focker I would buy it in a second! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took mine apart years ago to customize it and while it's a motorcycle helmet, it's feel like a very simple & basic helmet as best, DOT approved or not. Over the past few years I've seen some of these Masei Helmets whether it be size S/M or L/XL go for as low as $55.00 plus shipping on Ebay. The seller has a 100% rating so at least he seems to be honest. This is how mine arrived years ago at my request: t r And then what it turned into: That looks amazing! I’d love to see a custom TV Focker helmet! Edited May 23, 2020 by Rogueload Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mog Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) So, I’m waiting on a few figures, and I’ll be screwed if Bandai ever does SOC Legendary Defender Voltron, the Sincline Combiner, and/or the Fleet of Doom Robeast Combiner.

sqidd Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 This came in today. Not bad for $88 shipped. I searched the entire internet and couldn't find a Roy for under $500. I ended up ordering a Max for $88 and I'm going to try and paint it or commission someone to paint it. I'll probably do it myself. It doesn't look this dark in real life on top of the cab. It could use a little light though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice, I saw a Jolly Rogers inspired one at the manufacturer website. Insane how much they want retail and how much less the ebay seller had them for. Hmmm...oh well.

"Enabling" suggests that all this is bad behavior and we are steering you guys into making bad decisions ... which I don't believe is the case. Instead, I would say we should all get certificates for being "supportive". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
